Topic: Rolling Pin to kill SHB (Read 1099 times)

Just went out to the hives with a rolling pin, smoked the entrances, lifted the lid, smoked the bees off the top of the inner cover. Then mashed the beetles with a rolling pin. Just rolling it over the inner cover. :-D Killed 80-90% of what was between the vinyl inner cover and the frames. I did kill a few bees, but not many.
